The long-planned trip to Raja Ampat finally materialized two years later than expected. Thanks to my brother and his wife, who had invited us. We experienced a world new to us! From the whole Heinen and family, we thank you for guiding us to a new underwater world so expertly. All the members of the team were skilled helpful and always friendly. The food was exceptional. The dive masters and the snorkel staff made possible things we could never have experienced an our own. (Raja Ampat, January 2023)

Amazing! So beautiful! We are so lucky to have the opportunity to take this trip to Raja Ampat . The corals school of fish and the incredible crew really made the trip incredible. Pablo was the best GUIDE EVER. It was so fun to have a guide as excited about the critters as we are. John and Shelly were the best in the dining room. Sebastian was a fantastic cruise director we will be back!!

Thank you so much for another amazing trip! It’s always difficult to believe how perfectly every aspect seemed to fit into place. No matter the weather, everyone’s part was crucial and memorable. I hope to be able to share all those moments in the future, on to create new ones with the right opportunities. All the best!!

Thank you so much Seven Seas! Raja Ampat is unforgettable with views and wildlife both above and below water. I’ll never forget a small list of things: my first dive!!, many incredible dives with unique wildlife, AMAZING food, fireworks on New Year’s, and exploring high and low on hikes and in caves. I’m especially grateful to the crew for their hard work and for making us all feel so at home. Terima Kasih!!

An enormous thank you to the Seven Seas, the amazing crew, and the incredible people we met along the journey who contributed to making this experience unforgettable! Raja Ampat is stunningly beautiful, both in its landscapers and in its underwater wildlife. A time to adventure into nature and I will always remember the divers, hikes, whale, and dolphin watching, and all the other fun moments on board. A special thank you for the crew’s hard work to ensure the best possible experience!

Christine (Quebec City, Canada)
In 2015 after our Komodo-Flores experience on the Seven Seas, we take planning our return. This second stay on the Seven Seas confirmed that this is a unique experience with an exceptional new, incredible nature in Raja Ampat. Yes, the privileges of swimming in the caves, and snorkelling at the most beautiful coral reef in the world, the observation of Dugong, Kuskus, and the bird of paradise. However, this is nothing compared to the camaraderie, the new encounters, and the very nice and warmth relationships we declared with Alice, Guteri,Lida, Josh, Christian, and the crew. Thank you Sebastian for ensuring our safety and good weather! What a way to 2023! Best wishes to all Seven Seas!

Posted on Natalie ViñoloSeptember 15, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An unforgettable family adventure! We were 10 people, including teenagers and a toddler, and everyone had the time of their lives. The boat is spotless and comfortable, the dive sites breathtaking, and there are plenty of activities for non-divers too. The crew is outstanding—professional, friendly, and always attentive. The food was excellent, and every detail was taken care of. (Gluten free options available!) The Seven Seas is much more than a boat, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Highly recommended!Posted on Max Wind del OlmoSeptember 7, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sinceramente las mejores vacaciones de mi vida. Fui con amigos y familia a mediados de agosto de este año, y la verdad que cuesta de explicar con palabras todo lo vivido en tan poco tiempo. Si eres un apasionado del buceo este es el sitio a ir. Las immersiones se nota que estan trabajadisimas y realmente lo que puedes llegar a ver bajo el agua parece de otro mundo. Hablo de mantas rayas gigantescas, tortugas curiosas rodeadas de arrecifes preciosos, de tiburones pequeños y familiares como los de arrecife hasta el immenso tiburon ballena. Realmente me quedaria aun que escribiera muchas paginas describiendo todo lo que vimos. Aparte que los lugares y ambiente es paradisiaco. Destaco mucho Komodo y sus alrededores donde la vida salvaje es palpable (hasta vimos dragones en libertad, es decir fuera del paraue, un dia que hicimos una excursion en la playa.) Cabe remarcar que esta experiencia abordo del Seven Seas tambien puede ser muy gozada para los que no son tan amantes del buceo, pues disponen de un monton de actividades alternativas y complementarias, desde kayak y padel surf, hasta drinks y snacks en una playa idílica con musica viendo el atardecer. Para acabar (que esto se esta alargando mucho), un fuerte abrazo a todos los trabajadores; crew members, dive masters, cocineros y el cruise director Angel, que hicieron todo lo posible para que el viaje fuera verdaderamente de ensueño, se nota que son una gran familia de la cual yo tambien me siento una pequeña parte despues de esos dias en los cuales fuimos verdaderamente felices. Fueron 9 o 10 dias muy muy dificiles de olvidar.Posted on Imca SchootsSeptember 5, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wat een onvergetelijke reis hebben we beleefd op het schip The Seven Seas. Alles was tot in de puntjes verzorgd. De snorkeltrips waren fenomenaal. Bryan, onze snorkel guide, heeft ons de wonderschone onderwaterwereld laten ontdekken. Manta's, whalesharks, blacktip en white tip sharks, turtle en ontelbare andere bijzondere vissen met als hoogtepunt de 4 dugongs die we hebben gespot. Een magische ervaring. Angel, de fijne cruisemanager, had een gevarieerd programma voor ons samengesteld. Het was een once in a lifetime experience waar we enorm dankbaar voor zijn.Posted on Alex del OlmoSeptember 5, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful 10-night family trip from Komodo to Sumbawa, and everything was simply perfect. The crew was attentive and kind, the food was excellent (and plentiful, with snacks always available), and the diving exceeded our expectations. We were lucky to encounter plenty of mantas and even 3 whale sharks, along with incredible dives throughout Komodo National Park. A special thanks to Cruise Director Angel, who always made sure we dived at the best times, with little or no current. Truly an unforgettable experience!Posted on Daos 4USeptember 5, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wat een waanzinnige trip hebben wij gedaan op The Seven Seas! Fantastische crew die ons in de watten heeft gelegd. De cruise manager Angel en zijn team die de beste plekken wist om te snorkelen en te duiken in de regio, Sumbawa en Komodo. Een onvergetelijke belevenis! We hebben gezwommen met haaien en manta’s, de meest fantastische duik- en snorkel plekken bezocht en zelfs de schuwe dugong gezien 👌 De begeleiding die mee gaat het water in zorgt ervoor dat je meer ziet dan dat je je ooit kan voorstellen. Eten aan boord en de cabines zijn top of the bill. We kijken nu al weer uit naar de volgende trip, bedankt voor alles crew Seven Seas 🙏Posted on Riang van HazendonkSeptember 5, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was the best experience of my life! Going on a diving trip with the Seven Seas is an absolute recommendation. The food is super delicious, the staff is helpfull, kind and you can ask them everything. The trip was beautiful and i saw sooo many gorgeous fish. Everything was organized very well and it was an awesome experience to never forget!Posted on Joppe SpaanSeptember 5, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Seven Seas, wat een fantastische ervaring is dit. Van de duiken tot de activiteiten die geregeld worden is dit werkelijk waar zo bijzonder dat het niet te omschrijven is. Naast alle geweldige dingen die je ziet tijdens het duiken en de meest prachtige zonsondergangen en opkomsten is de bemanning ook subliem. Alles wordt voor je geregeld en je wordt serieus in de watten gelegd. Ik zou deze ervaring op de boot iedereen ten zeerste aanraden om ook zelf mee te maken. Zoals ik al eerder vermeld heb is de ervaring op dit schip niet te omschrijven maar moet je dit echt zelf mee maken.Posted on Daniel HeighesJuly 23, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you are looking for the best diving in all over Indonesia I would highly recommend this boat the friendly staff beautiful boat nice rooms and everything was just excellent. The crew are the most kind caring people and make you really feel like your at home not a second on this trip did I feel not comfortable with the seven seas and the crew always looking out for you and when you need someone they are right there would highly recommend coming on the seven seas live aboard!!!! Will definitely be back for another trip !Posted on David Galvan PhotographyApril 21, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just returned from a 12-day trip on the Alor-Komodo route and I have to say that the Seven Seas exceeded my expectations. It is a ship with a great history, very comfortable and with spaces to relax after the dives. The food is varied and excellent, the crew has been very attentive to us so that we enjoy the most of the stay on the ship and the dives. I liked that they take special care with the underwater cameras on the trips. The rooms are clean and really cozy. They have SUP paddle boards and kayaks on deck to take a ride and explore the beautiful beaches and areas during the trip. Without hesitation I will repeat the trip with the Seven Seas.Posted on James LangNovember 16, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just back from the Forgotten Islands itinerary. Superb vessel for this area. Nice rooms and common area. Dive skiffs perfect. Both the whips for filling tanks blew during the first few days...so equipment was constantly schelpped up out of the skiffs. I had a dump valve on a bc damaged and a reg holder, but oh well. Food was great and meh at the same time. Have the mi goreng for breakfast everyday ! It was incredible....but the jumbo prawns we had were overcooked every time we had them, which was often. The vegetarians ate best I think. Our dive guides were awesome.
